. . . glad you are here . . .
Scyth:
To make a long story short -
. . . I think I can be characterized as a Feral Bushman :
the ability to adapt to Anthropocene Era . . .
To wit :
. . . back in 1970 I built a Yahi bow from Southern Oregon Yew . . .
it was a working bow & I killed my share of small game with it . . .
(pictured above).
I still have it & it still is operational.
I have returned to my roots at long last (I am 68 years of age) . . .
I found a gorgeous balk of Red Elm that I intend to build a Pit River bow about 40 pounds in weight .
regards,
Scyth

Welcome aboard! We all eagerly await seeing your work and helping you more than you asked for ;) No, but really, we live to live vicariously through other peoples builds, no mater how many of our own we have going.
Pat B:
Welcome to PA, Scyth. 68 years old is a perfect age as far as I'm concerned. ;) Looking forward to seeing more of your work. :OK
Hawkdancer:
Welcome aboard! As a newbie, I got a couple more years on you, that's all! Have fun! These guys have probably forgotten more than I am going to learn about bow making, etc.

Scyth:
Thanks very much for your welcome !
Question :
I put a post entitled . . . any practitioners of Mongolian release . . .
in the Main Discussion Area/Bows where does the subject of primitive Form (in the respects) located ? ?
regards,
Scyth
